# Managing notifications

Notifications tell you about the most important changes in Proplanum — a new schedule, a task or a decision on a leave request. You decide yourself what you want to be told about and through which channel. You change the settings in a browser, in your profile.

# Open the notification preferences

1. Log in to your account through a browser: [app.proplanum.com/login](https://app.proplanum.com/login).
2. Click your **avatar** in the bottom left corner and pick **"My profile"**.
3. On the profile page click **"Edit data"**.
4. On the left pick the **"Notification preferences"** tab.

# Pick the channels and the notification types

The notifications are laid out in a table: the columns hold the two **channels** and the rows the **event types**. Tick the checkbox where the channel and the type you want to be told about meet.

The channels available:

* **App** — the notification appears in the app (among other things as a notification on your phone).
* **Mail** — the notification goes to the e-mail address assigned to your account.

The notification types:

* **A new work schedule created** — when your supervisor publishes a new schedule.
* **A new task** — when a task is assigned to you.
* **Updates to the work schedule** — when your shifts change in a schedule that has already been published.
* **Changes to the status of leave requests** — when your request is approved or rejected.

Once you have ticked the fields you want, click **"Save"**.

|| Tip: You can turn each type on separately for the App channel, the Mail channel or both at once — just tick both checkboxes in the row.

# What next

From now on you get only the notifications you ticked. You can change the settings at any time in the same tab. Your other account details — first name, phone, password or the KIOSK PIN — are changed in the "Personal information" tab; that is described in [Logging in and updating your profile](https://help.proplanum.com/en/article/logging-in-and-updating-your-profile-1oj6xws/).
